This is a twitter community, not a meme community

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

Oh, you are right. But what is the point then?

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

I was asked to mod this place, I said yes. I guess you could block it and only look at meme communities?

I was listening to a podcast yesterday—I think it was The Flop House— and one of the hosts talked about how part of the struggle involved with making any kind of art is getting through the phase where the quality of what you're able to create doesn't measure up to your taste. It's pretty discouraging when you work hard on something and it just isn't anywhere near as good as you think it should be. Maybe it's trite, but it resonated with me.

I believe that's true. We're our own worst critics, especially if we're hard on others.

In America, not sure of other countries, we have a thing for natural talent too. That people should wake up and be amazing at any kind of art or you'll never be as good. I have no idea why that's the case. Everyone wants people to look up when they perform or see that reaction of being stunned at how great they are naturally. Maybe a hidden talent?

It's weird since most people that are high up in entertainment, like singing or acting,, had parents that either paid to teach them, they have good genes and/or they grew up learning that stuff over years in front of trusted critics, their family. The family treated them like apprentices.
